Over 63,000 fans set to watch FA Youth Cup final between Man United and Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford - smashing previous attendance record for the game by 25,000 - with £1 tickets now in VERY short supply

Over 63,000 fans will watch Wednesday night's FA Youth Cup final between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford - smashing the attendance record for the competition.

United confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that 63,500 tickets - priced at just £1 - had been sold for the showpiece game with all receipts going to the club's charity foundation.

The crowd will far exceed the previous Youth Cup attendance record of 38,187, set for the first leg between Arsenal and United in March 2007.
